Agility Training: From FitFarms Weight Loss Resort

Agility Training Enhance Your Lifestyle

Agility is your fitness ability in terms of speed, movement, balance, reflex and coordination. Improved agility aligns with improved fitness, making your exercise journey progressive, sustainable and supporting your body. Incorporating agility exercise into your weekly schedule will allow you to boost many areas of your physical health and fitness ability and support progression through your journey to lifestyle change and weight loss.

Exercises To Improve Agility

Cone Drills are a great way to enhance your coordination, movement and speed as well as burning calories. For this exercise all you’ll need is several cones, alternatively you can use anything to represent a marking point. Set you cones spaced out in a straight line and run around them in a 'S' shape as quickly as possible.

Ladder Drills is a similar exercise to cone drills. For this agility exercise you will need an agility ladder, you can buy them on Amazon from $10 or any large fitness/sports shop. This exercise is done by laying your ladder out on the floor and stepping one foot at a time through each section of the ladder. Set interval times for yourself going back and forth as fast as you can. This exercise enhances your agility through movement (especially the feet), coordination and speed. It is a great exercise to get your blood pumping and calories burning.

Jump Training is another agility boosting exercise. Jump training enhances your speed, movement, power and strength. Some jump training includes jumping squats, box jumps, burpees and tuck jumps. These exercises are adaptable to your fitness ability and can be done from a moderate to high intensity. Great for burning fat and aiding in weight loss.

How Can Agility Training Support Your Fitness Journey?

Agility training can not only support your progression through your weight loss and fitness goals, but also your mental focus, cardiovascular health and prevent risk of injury. Improving your agility will support you through your health and day to day life, something that should be adapted into your weekly exercise regime to ensure progression throughout your overall lifestyle.
